 Generated CAD-based geometries and FEM-ready models for advanced material evaluation.  Conducted FEM simulations and model cleanup to support non-destructive testing research.  Prepared technical documentation and drawings for prototype components.

 Performed fatigue and fracture analyses of metallic components using Abaqus.  Validated numerical models with thermographic methods and experimental fatigue data.  Investigated crack initiation mechanisms, load-dependent thermal dissipation, and durability under variable amplitudes.  Developed dynamic load simulation models to analyze fracture-critical regions.

 Designed and optimized mechanical components with focus on fatigue resistance and structural durability.  Performed fatigue-oriented FEA simulations to reduce field failure rates.  Conducted endurance and mechanical tests to correlate failure modes with design features.  Improved component lifespan by applying material selection and geometric optimization for crack mitigation.

 Conducted research focused on reliability‑based optimization of truss structures under fatigue‑related uncertainties.  Developed MATLAB algorithms to predict failure probabilities and structural fatigue performance.  Modeled long‑term load behavior for durability-oriented designs.
